I need to get some attractive (but cheapish) jumpers or cardigans. Any ideas?

[AnneOfAvonlea]

Going somewhere where it will be cold and I need to wear layers. I have vest tops, t-shirts etc but I could do with a cardigan and 1 or 2 jumpers.

I am short, big norks so tend to wear v-necks but not sure that will keep me warm.

Any ideas?

uniqlo are supposed to be pretty good and very well-priced. Also Topshop appear to have revamped their knitwear and I am finding that there is a higher merino content (important for cold climes) and they are washing beautifully without shrinking or pilling.

Gap are reasonable prices (always have a sale rail too) but I find there is always some shrinkage.

If you want to wear v-necks, why not wear a funky scarf with it too a la Kate Moss and other slebs? I wear my v-neck jumpers this way in the winter (am v sensitive to cold so like to cover up any potential draughty areas!!)

tkmaxx usually good for knitwear ime - angora, alpaca, cashmere all good for warm/light. i also find a good pair of elbow length armwarmers works a treat under jumpers, around the draughty bits, plus can wear indoors and still type accessorize usually have some.

Tesco have got cheap v neck jumpers in lots of colours at the moment - I think they're eight quid each but I could be wrong.

Primark. Great colours and great over shirts or t's - if you can bare the guilt!

everyone is on about UNIQLO...cheap cashmere.

Thanks everyone. Havent heard of Uniqlo so off to google.

oh yes, can second TK Maxx. They have lovely John Smedley knitwear starting from £20 (usually retails for £100+)

My fave sweater is from New Look. NOt wool or anything but great cut.
